The Fire Sermon - by Darren Allen (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Why is the world so mad? Why is everyone so unhappy?

What's the point of it all? What on earth is going on?

It's all over bar the shouting, but fear not dear friends,

Modra the Monkey God has some good news...

The Fire Sermon is a straightforward guide to the human condition, the insane world we live in, and how to free yourself from both. It explains the real reason why everyone is so bored, the cause of your suffering, why the world turns people into machines, what death is, how to locate your conscience and take passionate action. The Fire Sermon is painful and beautiful, easy to understand and terrible to grasp, a kind of agony and a kind of ecstasy; the kind of gift that only the oldest gods can give you: apocalyptic optimism.
